Yeah, fuck science, math, and all the other facts at play here.

Dude, don't even post if you're just going to post nonsense.

WAKE UP! As someone at risk (you were a heavy smoker, pretty sure), and as an older person, this could kill you.

Not just an older person, anyone with a weak immune system. My wife who is in Germany, just finished her last chemotherapy about 2 weeks ago and the doctors told her not to get on a plane. She was due to come home for a few weeks before starting immunotherapy.

Yes, I know. I was speaking specifically to @Buckeyebowman.

He's not a 22-year-old with great lungs. He's an older long-time smoker.

I've heard this "flattening the curve" nonsense, and think it's a load of propaganda. Consider the numbers they're comparing. Early March, when we were testing basically nobody, to now when we're doing thousands of tests a day! What would you expect to happen? If you go looking for something, you're apt to find it! 

People can be idiots. They succumb to panic, which DeWine seem to be doing a bit of. Either that, or there's something we're not being told!

Wait, so young healthy people going out to restaurants and bars effects the elderly/weak? I don't really think that this is the answer. 

Young healthy people going to a bar or restaurant and catching the disease and then passing it on to the elderly/weak is not a thing?

I mean...are you effing serious?

On 3/16/2020 at 2:27 PM, Bonvivant said:

1. If I am washing my hands and being careful, explain how I effect elderly/weak if there are none in that environment

 

Being coughed on and then coughing on or touching someone later on. Are you for real? Seriously?

But to shut down the restaurant business altogether seems extreme.

Yeah - to potentially save lives and stop infection during a  pandemic does seem pretty extreme

 I will go out as much as a please. I am safe and healthy as I do so. 

How the *&%^ do you know that you are "safe and healthy"?

Your posts are like a copybook of how to be irresponsible and how to ensure that as many people as possible are infected. You should be ashamed.

I went to the gym for the last time last night. Now I will be trying to come up with unique ways to exercise. 😕

My wife and I are going to set up my son's old room as our gym for the time being.

Boston is now has Orange Status travel restrictions. Construction sites are being asked to close down, which is huge.

You could chase those dogs of yours around the backyard if it isn't still too cold for you.

Every muni or public course within a 50 mile radius of me closed for at least two weeks yesterday. So no golf for moi.  Im working from home indefinitely. 

I think this quarantine is going to make me wish i went into divorce law...

Both of my 20 somethings still live in our house. If not, I would do that for sure.

Today is acceptable, but the yard is a slimy mud-hole due to lack of sun.

A lot of Youtube videos and catching up on my DVR recordings. Still playing and going to the driving range as long as they remain open.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
    • I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.
